My extensive US nickname is Soma. There is no one in college who knows me by any other name. I received the tag by Shan, a freshman mentalist, because my last name is pSOMAdakis, which is too long and Greek to pronounce for people. It caught on like wildfire, and for the duration of my college years I had to answer people's questions as to why my parents named me Soma Psomadakis ---> (stay off the doob coeds..)
